Here’s a thing… Been meaning to do something with this chord structure for about a year and never really got round to it till tonight - found some nice free mac software that actually has midi out! -
Studio One Prime if you’re asking.
Here’s a housey thing I’ve been kicking around for a while. Not been able to make a breakthough with it until today. Must be the sun’s appearance. Not sure if the burbling acid line and Vangelis style strings sit right through the middle section? Take a listen if you feel like it
It’s amazing how ridiculously good something sounds in 8 bars but when you come to arranging, it all goes to meh!
I’m going to channel my inner James Hamilton here and say I like your jiggly throbbing, acidically twittering synth line accompanied by that vigorously haunting vocal snatch!
Some of the best advice I read on that is to layer in a tune you like and reference that as you arrange. Works well for dance stuff with not a lot going on.
I’ve decided to take a leap of faith and set up a label to release my own music.
It’s going to be an organic process, releasing tracks inspired by what I’m feeling at that moment in time, ambient, downtempo, dream, deep, acid house.
The label is called Lone Saxon and have my first release on the 25th of this month. It’s inspired by the Italian/Rimini House/Dream House days of the early 90’s taking inspiration from mixes by Ricky Montanari and clubs like Ethos Mama Club and Club dei Nove Nove.
I’ve set up a Bandcamp page and the release is on pre order.
Starting from scratch, so if you’re feeling it a follow or purchase would be greatly appreciated.
